Roger Savory

April 25, 2024

Roger Mervyn Savory (27 January 1925 – 16 February 2022) was a British-born Professor Emeritus at the University of Toronto[1] who was an Iranologist and specialist on the Safavids. His numerous writings on Safavid political, military history, administration, bureaucracy, and diplomacy-translated into several languages have had a great impact in understanding this period.[2]

Biography edit

Savory was first introduced to Iranian studies as a young man between 1943 and 1947.[1] He started his formal education in Oxford under Professors Hamilton Gibb, Joseph Schacht and Richard Walzer. In 1950 he began lecturing on Persian at the school of SOAS. He completed his Ph.D. under Ann Lambton and Vladimir Minorsky at SOAS in 1958. He then joined the faculty of University of Toronto and was a major factor in establishing the University of Toronto as one of the forerunners of Middle Eastern and Iranian studies in North America.[2] Savory died on 16 February 2022, at the age of 97.[3]

Besides books and journal articles, he has also contributed to the Encyclopaedia of Islam,[4] Encyclopaedia Iranica,[5] and other encyclopaedias. He also has dozens of book reviews published in peer-review journals.
